First, I wanted to share this quote I read today…
If you want to help victims of the Boston Marathon tragedy you can Donate Blood to the Red Cross or Donate money to One Fund Boston or Boston Children’s Hospital or Mass General.
I tweeted about my dinner and a few of you asked for a recipe. This is an old standby for me, so I thought I had already posted it many moons ago. Guess not.
Enchilada Casserole Recipe
1. Make Crockpot Salsa Chicken. (4 chicken breasts + 1 jar salsa in pot until done)
2. Shred the chicken. Do not pass go, do not collect $200, do not decide to make tacos instead because it’s easier.
3. Grab an oven safe dish and spread some enchilada sauce or salsa on the bottom. Most of the time I use salsa because I always have it around. Place corn tortillas on top for the base.
4. Layer shredded chicken, mushrooms or random veggie drawer item of your choice, salsa and cheese. Top with another layer of corn tortillas and repeat until the dish is full.
5. Bake at 350 degrees until cheese is melted and heated through. Enjoy!
Question: What’s for dinner?
Candy @ Candypolooza says
Oh I can’t wait to try this recipe tomorrow! 🙂 I came back to look at it again! Gotta go get some cheese!
Nicole says
What’s on the top part of your plate?? Mysterious pile of….?
ashlee says
I made chicken taquitos the same night you made this. They were so good, and sorta healthy cause I baked them and didn’t fry! Made an avocado lime sauce to go with it…yummy! I will have to try the enchiladas my husband would love them!
momtaxijulie says
Looks nice and easy! I kind of lol’d about the don’t just make tacos, I do that A LOT haha.
Gabby @ Gabby Rose Runs says
Can I just say how much I appreciate your recipes? I’m SO not a cook, and I get overwhelmed by all these fancy dishes other bloggers make. I love how do-able but delicious your creations are. Thanks!!
Kelly@ShapeDaily says
Great quote and so true, I saw a picture of the Boston Marathon runners that said “You just pissed off a lot of people who run faster than you and never give up. Real smart.” Made me smile. This looks delicious. Any chicken I’ve ever made in the crockpot is always incredible, and then layering it with cheese and veggies, can’t go wrong!
Ashley @ OurPersonalRecords says
That sounds delicious! I’m a big fan of Mexican-esque food, so this is right up my ally. My boyfriend would also probably prefer this to the black bean tacos I’m always making!
Elizabeth @ Positive Change says
Yum! Tonights dinner was broccoli, sweet potatoes, and chicken which was marinated in a Sun-dried tomato vinaigrette!
Karen @ Runner Girl Eats says
This looks like a nice change to my weekly tacos without venturing too far 😉
Jessica says
Love that quote and so true! I think that mexican lasagne looks great and we’ll give it a try. Thanks for sharing
Sue says
I was doing my taxes when I got home, so had no time to cook and ended up with a open face sandwich (thanks for the tip Monica!) and some cashew nuts on the side. Finished dinner with Cadbury Hot Choc drink.
Jojo says
That reminds me of another quote I saw today:
‘If you are losing faith in human nature, go out and watch a marathon’
The spirit of marathoners, and runners in general, is hard to beat. We train ourselves to deal with the physical pain, as well as mental hardship. Yesterday was one terrible and evil event, but the overwhelming response of compassion and support from both within and outside of the running community demonstrates that there is still good, love, and kindness in the world.
For dinner, I had black bean, tempeh, and veggie stir fry over barley, topped with salsa and avocado. Didn’t even have to cook since they were left over from yesterday 🙂

Thanks for sharing that quote!
Candice says
I love when you inspire what I should make for dinner. Was just wondering what to go pick up at the store. Thx!
Megan says
Why hello delicious!! I didn’t get in from running today until 8 and had errands to run so I was stuck having a grab and go smoothie for dinner. I had planned on having a this though: Chili Garlic Coconut Cream Delight- http://abetteryeartoabetterlife.com/2013/03/13/must-make-meal/ it easily my most favorite meal right now and it’s been a few weeks since I have made it!
runeatrepeat says
Sounds delicious!
Alex says
I make this with chicken, mexicorn, frozen spinach and frozen broccoli. Yummy!!
runeatrepeat says
I was def missing corn on this!
Art @ Fit at Fifty says
Marathoners are not easily defeated.
Thanks for todays post.
Kim says
I’ve made crockpot salsa chicken lots of times but next time I’m going to try the enchilada casserole – looks awesome!!
Susan says
I must try this. I’ve made your Crockpot Salsa Chicken and it was fab! Dinner was a very boring salad. SNOOOOOOOZE
Renee says
Love the quote.
You posted it once before – Feb 6th, 2013 before Surf City 😉 Stalker much aha???
runeatrepeat says
Ha! If only I was really cool enough to have a stalker 🙂
Avery @ SBLW says
Yum Yum Yum Yum!
Beth @ Running with the Sunrise says
I love Mexican lasagna! Super easy to make, especially if you get prepared veggies. (I like to use packages of frozen fajita veggies.) Plus, it heats up really well as leftovers. I had Jimmy John’s for dinner–didn’t feel up to cooking, and I’ve been craving one of their sandwiches for a while.
runeatrepeat says
I’ve never been to Jimmy John’s (they’re not around here) but saw one in AZ with a “Free Smells” sign. Ha!
Beth @ Running with the Sunrise says
If you’re ever hungry and in a town that has one, check it out! Their sandwiches are delicious–it’s one of my fave places to go for a quick bite!
Amy @ Writing While Running says
I make this (my own version of it which is really similar) all the time! So easy and delicious 🙂
Lindsey @ Run Freckles Run says
I had a salad. Basically balances out with the massive brownie that I had for dessert afterwards.
runeatrepeat says
I want a brownie!
Colleen says
AMEN!!!! We are warriors and cannot be defeated. Love it. A chicken salad is for din.
Presh says
Honestly, oatmeal is going down for dinner.
I just don’t have a test for other stuff.
I want pancakes actually.
But I decided against it until the weekend.
Great quote!
